A large £947 bet has been placed on the Polymarket platform that Prime Minister Keir Starmer will leave Downing Street by June 26. The market currently implies an ~82% chance the resignation will be announced by that date.

The sizeable trade by an account named 'Dead-Skylight' comes amid growing speculation over Starmer's future. The Prime Minister has faced calls from some Labour MPs to step down, though he has insisted he will not resign.
